Musician Jordan Pemberton is looking to help fellow artists get their songs heard after transforming an ageing town centre building into a stylish recording venue.

The determined 22-year-old has unveiled JLM Studios in the heart of Burslem.

Jordan has invested £13,000 in overhauling the Clayhanger Street property after securing the lease.

The former Haywood Academy pupil, who lives in nearby Scotia Road, said: “The building is about 200 years old. We now have a lobby, lounge, and rehearsal room. Upstairs there are offices and recording facilities.

“We’ve already got bands coming here and there has been a lot of interest.”
